Nous avons passé un excellent week-end dans cette maison très bien rénovée. Tout a été parfait. La maison est spacieuse, confortable et très propre. La localisation entre le lac Leman et les stations de ski est très pratique. Nous recommandons chaleureusement cette location.
Nous remercions Alexandra pour sa disponibilité.
